the white house. she was so passionate about art that she even proposed the edition of a new wing on the white house to house an art gallery. unfortunately this never happened, but i think it's so interesting to imagine what it would be like if an entire wing of the white house was a gallery next slide. now in particular mrs. harrison loved watercolors china paintings and florals. she even helped to design the harrison white house china service this photograph shows a tea set painted by mrs. harrison featuring orchids, which were her favorite flower mrs. harrison would often go to the white house conservatory a large indoor garden where orchids were grown and get her inspiration while sitting and enjoying the flowers next slide. now here you can see a mahogany box which held mrs. harrison's watercolor supplies. it's in the collection of the benjamin harrison presidential site. and on the right is a sketch of her proposed white house expansion as you can see, it's quite palatial and it was too expensiv

when you came up with our idea for the one about the white house -- >> white house down. >> white house down. where did you get the idea from and how long did it take you to write that? >> i actually adapted a book by richard clark called against all enemies which he was the counterterrorism czar under president clinton. i was fascinated by the idea of what would happen in a crisis. and much like the sort of being of designated survivor in our film, it's bombing of the capitol, but it's a diversion. that film didn't end up getting made, but i really loved the world and wanted to explore it, but i love big summer popcorn movies. i try to blend the two of them. >> everything you write doesn't get made? >> no. >> i thought everything in hollywood gets made. >> god bless you, sir. from your lips. no, absolutely. i didn't end up getting -- >> white house down, you wrote it what year? >> i wrote it in 2012? i wrote it on speck -- >> speck means you're not getting paid. >> speck means i'm absolutely not getting paid. about a week before i finished it, i read online that a movie called olympus

. >> filmmakers and former white house officials describe the work on productions depicting white house and the presidency. the discussion hosted by the white house historical association was recorded at the john f. kennedy center for the performing arts and washington d.c.. >> good evening, i hope you've been enjoying tonight's program. it's fascinating and there's more to come. a year ago, i was honored when fred ryan, the chair of our board asked me to chair the white house historical associations board committee for this important four-day summit. i want to thank the members of our committee, martha, mike mockery and stop and a historian advisor for their year long commitment and their numeral contributions to the planning of the senate. with a tremendous that for the white house -- and leadership, we've convened more than 100 presidential sites, as well as leading experts in a wide array of fields and interest at the presidential site representatives told us that they wanted to hear from. i want to thank our good friend, david rubenstein for mild writing a fascinating conversation

when i was at the white house, i suspect. but one of them i aelz remember was this. my boss was stewart, the president's policy adviser. i was the deputy. in those days stewart would go home to dinner, he had young kids, he went home for dinner. so i was staying there, i ate at the vending machine so i didn't go home i just ate there. one time stewart was away, and he was coming back and the president of the united states had a phone that he could just pick up and it would ring directly in stewart's office. but it also would flash in my office so well. one time, the president called and stewart wasn't there, so i figured, geez, i'll pick it up myself. so i'm talking to the president and he thinks for about 30 seconds it's stewart he's talking to and finally, i say, it's david. he said it doesn't make a difference i can talk to you about what i want to talk to you about. i'm giving him my advice, stewart is coming back, going past my office and he calls the white house operator and says can you get me the president? and she sa

i needed the white house with that. but i'll add just a little bit because i've answered your question that it was there was nothing not not an iota of truth to their portrayal in the crown. but um, there was a sort of a dramatic event during the dance bob mcnamara linda remembers this bob mcnamara then secretary of defense was twirling around the room christine ford wife of henry ford. it was a beautiful actually gorgeous woman low-cut white gown and and as he was twirling her around she had a wardrobe malfunction and people oh, but you know corrected it right quickly, but you can imagine that was a bitter of the evening. later dinner. i was not seated at the table with the president, but she wasn't of course and there was kurt douglas and happy rockefeller, but the summary answer was none of that portrayed in the crown was accurate. well, let me just add that. quite a few of the social aids dancing with mrs. ford and it's all i saved her. i pulled, you know help with up so but i mean it has been a story over 50 years

to the white house. since thomas jefferson, only -- made it as vice president and tyler only did because -- >> sandy is watching us from newcastle, delaware. hi sandy. >> my question is i know you are from tennessee, what do you actually think of slavery? and was she a kind slave master. >> james kaye polk as well said that when she died she -- would as it turned out she sold their plantation before the civil war. but the issue of slavery was not really brought to the forefront during either in their marriage or in his administration. with the administrations that follow polk. >> in some ways that's not true. the politics of america from the 19 thirties to 18 sixties a swirling around slavery all of the time. >> the opposition to the mexican war which polk starts and which we don't have to have, the opposition to the war in part comes from northerners who see it as a vast conspiracy to steal mexico so that sleeve owners could have someplace to go. and southern's say as much. they say we want mexico becau

white house approved journalist these days. now the germany based pharmacy to company cure vax says it is having trouble producing its new vaccine because if u.s. export restrictions but if you can and the you have preordered almost half a 1000000000 but the wounds that those orders or risk. global supply chains are disrupted be it chemical sequent meant filters or hoses u.s. manufacturers are obliged 1st to meet american demand and that means we are slipping down the list well the concerns to come after the biden administration and the so-called defense production act this was introduced during the cold war and it grants washington emergency powers to secure vital resources by prioritising its own orders has led to u.s. supplies struggling now to fill contracts at side the country professor of medicine dr rudolf the enter explained the possible ramifications. one think we know who sure used so many old school where were your transom materials that we need for research and for producing great scenes of course supplied by exit r

i: the radio back to the white house -- called on the radio back to the white house. we had no idea the president was under treatment. i thought perhaps he had come to check on brady. i saw the deputy chief of staff was on the telephone line. the president was in treatment. >> go ahead. >> i was going to ask for a little bit more time. i wanted to cover a couple of these things. i came out of the hilton hotel, i know jerry was on the president's left. now i am on the right side. jerry is on the left side. we are probably 10 feet from a fully armored car. all of the setting, six shots go off. there was some electricity in the air. i had heard gunshots before but these were not very loud. it was a revolver. an inexpensive revolver. what i wanted to say, from where he was, he had the gun in the rain coat pocket. as soon as he saw the president and he followed him from left to right. god bless jim brady. that is when he first responded. he stood right in front of where the president was. they had the old doors on those cars. they open from front to rear. that gave us a bi

>> jeff zeleny at the white house, thanks so much. let's throw it back to anderson. >> jake, thanks very much. how much does a speech like this actually matter? i mean, a lot of coverage and we talk about it a lot but a week from now. >> it matters. i think people, especially progressives, we under estimated joe biden. we were like joe biden, he's going to maybe be slightly better than trump. he's going to maybe walk away from trump, be nicer than trump. he is chasing fdr. joe biden is swinging for the fences. you look at this speech, this is a once in a century opportunity to reset the american system. you're talking about a free community college? you're talking about child care. you're talking about family leave. you're talking about the family economics that are on display here will change people's lives in a real way. so i think nobody has really put it together yet. this is a big reveal. you put all the stuff together. you've got the deferred maintenance taking care of for how this country can work for more people. i think it's

what is the white house's view on salt? ron: restoring the salt the duction is not a way to pay for the planted i have -- pay for the planted we want to -- we under kant -- we understand the concern it i want to hear how they would pay for the deduction. we know that to pass this bill, we are going to need a broad range of support. we are going to try to put that together in the weeks ahead working with democrats, republicans to try to find the votes. that is the process that got the american rescue plan past. we are going to go through an effort, hopefully this time a more bipartisan effort to pass this much needed investment in america's future. ryan: most republicans in the senate if you are on the hunt for senate republicans, they voted in 2017 to cut the corporate tax rate from 35 to 21. many of them believed that a strong economy followed those tax cuts and the results of that vote. you are asking them to partially reverse the corporate tax rate and bring it back up to 28%. by my account, nine out of the 10 republican

what's the white house's view on salt? >> salt, of course, restoring the salt is not a way to pay for the plan, it's another deduction. i've talked to josh and he's an old friend. we want to engage those parts of the country, and it's a major issue. i want to hear how they would pay for this tax deduction and how it fits into the overall package. look, we know that to pass this bill, we're going to need a prod broad change of support and -- need a broad change of support, and we'll put that together with the republicans and democrats to try to find the votes, and that's the process that got the american rescue plan passed and we'll go through a bipartisan effort in the future. >> most republicans in the senate, if you're on the hunt for senate republicans, they voted in 2017 to cut the corporate tax rate from 35 to 21. many of them believe that whether you agree with this or not, that a strong economy followed those tax cuts and were partially a result of that vote. you're now asking them to partially reverse the corporate

does the white house have any reaction to that? jen: i can confirm the president does not spend his time tweeting conspiracy theories and spends his time working on behalf of the american people. reporter: to piggyback on the corporate tax rate, senator manchin said he would only raise it to 25%, that is his line in the sand. what is the white house response to that and has the president or secretary buttigieg spoken to him about that? jen: we are in touch with a range of officials and members of congress and there have been dozens of meetings and briefings. i don't have a specific readout, but we are encouraged to hear senator manchin is open to raising the corporate tax rate as a means of potentially paying for a historic and been spent -- historic investment in our nations infrastructure and creating jobs. the president is happy to ideas about how this plan and package should be paid for. his primary focus is on creating jobs, on helping put back to work the millions of men and women who don't have college degrees, on evening th

the president's budget is essentially a proposal, it's what the white house wants to see. and in a lot of ways, it's a messaging document. people call it a wish list, and there's this phrase, the president proposes and congress disposes. but president biden is saying he wants major increases to non-defense programs. health, education, labor programs. public health, things like that. that is really what we're seeing in terms of priorities. a 16% increase is huge. essentially, the president is proposing $769 billion for non-defense programs. at the same time, he's only proposing a marginal increase for military funding. we've already seen that run into resistance from both republicans and progressives. just a wish list, but there's a clear emphasis on a need for domestic investments. >> we welcome your calls and comments. (202) 748-8001 for republicans, (202) 748-8000 for democrats, and (202) 748-8002 for independents and all others. this is completely separate from the $1.9 trillion last month for covid-19 stimulus and other things. >> right. congress passed this huge coron

by the way, and presumably the white house says the same thing. they send a lot of electronic records that on their face may not seem veryth significant. i think the differences with the white house, with the president you can't always assess the significance of the presidents records in a contemporary timeframe. a lot of what becomes interesting is time. that is why the fact the provision that allows the president currently to dispose of records that are considered not permanent, is really misplacing needs to go. there has to be a default that everything that comes out of the white house everything that's presidential records needs to be preserved. we leave to the archivist after the president has left office to sift through and t decide whether or not in fact, maybe they don't need to keep every letter and e-mail that was sent from someone outside the whiteth house. but the real risk, i would rather air on the side of preserving too much then preserving too little. these fears are even heightened with president trump. as i have been saying, i be

when you came up with your idea for the one about the white house. >> white house down, yeah. >> where did you get the idea from, how long did it take to write that? >> i got the idea, i adapted a book by richard clark called against all enemies. he was a kepa terrorist who was under president clipped in -- clinton. the first chapter of the book was on september 11th, i was fascinated by the idea of what would happen in a crisis. much like the beginning of designated survivor, in our film it is the bombing of the capital but as a diversion. i wanted to make something, i want to explore it. i also loved -- i tried to blend the two. >> everything you're right does not make? made >> no. >> i thought everything you wrote made sense. >> god bless you, sir. from your lips. absolutely. it did not end up getting made. >> white house down, you wrote it wet year? >> i wrote it in 2012. i did not ray any -- 's i rode on spec. >> that means you are not getting paid? >> it means exactly i'm not getting paid. a week before i have finished, it i read online that a movie called olympics has fallen was

once it moved to the white house grounds, you could smell the white house easter egg roll before he can see it. >> if they did not find some of the eggs and hard-boiled eggs were left, that created a problem. >> that was the problem. and it was something that even happened in the 20th century. there was one year in the nixon administration where they decided to use a lot more real eggs and a few got misplaced shall we say for it while and that was the last time he did that. >> why did president hayes and his family decide they wanted to take over this tradition? >> the president was out on his daily walk and some schoolchildren covered him and said we have no place to roll our eggs now. he said that is odd. why don't you just come back with me and you can roll eggs on the white house grounds? a couple hundred children did that first year in 1878. >> as time goes by coming to -- time goes by, you tell this in your story -- first of all, who did the illustrations? >> john hutton. >> what were you elaborately -- collaboratively trying to achieve with this? >> what we were trying to do is h

in the white house. let's listen to it. . from the early days of our administration, nancy has been intentionally involved in the ever to fight drug abuse. her personal observations and efforts have given her such dramatic insights that i wanted her to share them with you this evening. nancy? nancy: thank you. as a mother, i always thought of september as a special month. a time where they can go fill those restless mind was so much has happened over these last few years. so much to shift the foundations of all we know and all we believe today, there is a drug and alcohol abuse epidemic in this country and no one is safe from it. one of the things one learns when reading your book is that the irony is that even though she was promoting just say no, she had an issue with prescription drugs. karen: that is correct. you have to go back to the 1950's. she had this 19 -- this very anxious personality. very tightly wound. when women would go to doctors back then, the doctors would hand them a sedative. they ha

house news several white house officials even followed her on twitter montagu then asked credentialed reporters in the white house press room so a pass on her questions because she couldn't make it there to code the regulations and stuff like that and they did no credentials no background check nothing and this laziness or incompetence or whatever you want to call it on the part of the white house press team is exactly what led montague to do all this in the 1st place i love journalism and i think the press corps is doing a pretty bad job at the moment so i decided i would ensure some transparency and ask some questions me and some friends wanted the answer to and she's not the only one fed up with real journalists ever since biden circa office the pres briefings in the white house have turned into a game of softball a police compared to the way the media behaved during the true. but ministration back then everyone suddenly had a sense of journalistic duty to ask the hard questions and grill the administration over everything and anything this president like go ahead you think candida

wes: first, a white house fellowship. the same gentlemen was a former white house fellow. i came back from a mission and he said i want you to apply for this thing called the white house fellowship. he said it is important for people in washington to get a first-hand understanding of the year you are having right now, so they can see what is going on on the ground, so i applied for a white house fellowship, and i had the honor of working under then secretary of state condoleezza rice and her team, which was unbelievable and a life-shifting experience to go through that. david: after your white house fellowship, you work for condoleezza rice. does your mother say can you get a serious, full-time job, make some money? is that what you finally decided to do? what did you do? wes: i did. my mother was like, slow down, start actually preparing a family. and also, i was married at that point, so now you are thinking about, what are the things you want to be able to do? started to think about my and i -- about the things i was interested in, the skill set i had, so i decided that

suppose president biden called you and want to do to come the white house. would you prefer to work for the biden edmonton -- administration or prefer to run for governor of maryland? for me this is not about i want to go into politics, for me, it is about the executive role controls the budget has the opportunity to change things for the future. tell us something you doing where you have failed so that we don't feel like we are walking someone superhuman. is there something you can say you are not good at? there is plenty i am not good at or have failed at, but one thing about me is that i am not afraid to fail.

this is truman once he got out of the white house. he discovered that he could be freer with what he was saying. i have a very good friend who lives in austin who grew up in kansas city. he grew up there in the 19 fifties and he recalled visiting the truman library. the second of the presidential libraries after the franklin roosevelt library. and so he goes to a school, he takes a field trip to the truman library. and my friend gray, he's a third grader. and they're all tripping out of the bus to go into the library and who should they see? but former president harry truman who lived adjust several blocks from the library, had an office in the lab run every morning he'd get up and he'd walk to the library. and he would talk with the people on the way, he did and he would talk to people. so he started chatting up this group of third graders. i said hello kitties. so when you know about history? and what do you know about politics? truman, the last president not to have a college degree, but he prodded himself on the knowledge because

that's according to a white house official the number of people seeking asylum in the u.s. has increased in recent months and that's despite mexico deploying more soldiers in march and honduras doing the same in january she have written see more of this joins me now from washington d.c. and she i mean the u.s. has made these agreements with central american nations i mean should there be surprise at the numbers being deployed by those nation states. i think it shows once again how much continuity there is between the by did ministrations policies on migration and the trumpet ministrations policy on migration it's true as you mentioned there have been a spike in numbers at least of encounters at the border and these could be repeat repeat attempts at seeking asylum in the us but joe biden has retained the most draconian of the trump era policies notably title $42.00 which prevents the vast majority of asylum seekers and refugees from seeking due process in complete violation of international and domestic law only biden is allowing in unaccompanied children and rather relucta

i want to know what is the white house's message to groups who are largely supportive of this white house about the concerns over furthering this trump policy? sec. psaki: we are still in the middle of a global pandemic. keeping the american people safe and ensuring that we are taking responsible steps as it relates to the pandemic is front and center for the president. at the same time, we absolutely believe we should be a country and are a country that wants to treat people humanely, as evidenced by our efforts to treat children who come to this country who are under 18 as unaccompanied children in a manner that is not the same as the former administration. we understand, we have heard the frustration about this issue, but the presidents objective is to keep systems in place, policies in place,, policies -- to implement policies around the pandemic. i can't make a prediction around that. that will be based on what the evaluation is by health experts. reporter: can i ask a follow-up on the turkey question? turkey is a nato member. what consideration is the administration taking of the co

what they're hearing from the white house is that the white house is fully committed to getting their support. they really do want this bill to be bipartisan, and i think that would be the best outcome for the american people. >> daniel, let's get into the weeds of this thing. i want to read from a politico piece. the administration's plan calls for electrifying at least a fifth of u.s. school buses out of a fleet of nearly 500,000. the plan also calls for converting the entire fleet of federal vehicles to electric, 650,000. it also contains a staggering 50 billion over eight years to create an office within the commerce department to oversee the nation's critical supply chains whose vulnerabilities have been exposed during the coronavirus pandemic. this piece was really about what folks may have missed in this infrastructure plan. we're talking a lot about the headlines out of this thing, but there is a lot of stuff that we haven't necessarily spoken of that could really benefit americans. >> yeah. there's a ton of things that the biden administration has put into this package to rea

the white house feels that they are making progress. the white house has confidence in karen bass, cory booker, who is meeting with tim scott. it's important to note that republicans see this as an important priority, the selection of tim scott as the republican to respond to the president's speech tomorrow also shows that they see this as something that needs to get done. that's why, unlike a lot of other issues, republicans are giving scott a real legwork to go into these negotiations with their colleagues. i think his endorsement, if a breakthrough is made, will be significant. >> well, that was my question for you, mike memoli. tim scott isn't just the republican party's sort of designee for these negotiations. he seems to be to be negotiating in good faith. on his own part he's been selected to respond tomorrow night, but there's a cacophony undermining the very idea that police reform in america is necessary. is the white house sort of aware of, or intent on trying to do anything to give tim scott any extra running room, or are th

what is the white house doing to address policing? are there any more executive orders in the pipeline or under consideration? what message are you going to send to those communities? jen: there are a number of steps we have taken, the department of justice has taken. let me first reiterate the president has said repeatedly he believes we need police reform. that is why i'm calling on congress to deliver that to his desk. it is incumbent upon congress and the senate to move forward. obviously there are discussions and negotiations about what that looks like. but we have seen an unacceptable and a long-standing trend that is the cause of immense pain and hardship across the country. during the campaign then former vice president biden emphasizes the importance of the justice department using the authority he spearheaded as a senator to investigate systemic police misconduct. there are a couple of steps that have been taken in recent weeks. last week the joining garland limited to the memo for the use of consent decrease and reversing t

a lot of the food that was cooked at the white house mess was cooked by navy chefs, not the white house kitchen staff. yes. >> thank you very much for speaking today. was there any elaborate meals that stood out while you were investigating in your book that you just said wow, that sounds delicious? and one more thing. was there ever a case in which someone had an allergic reaction to something that was eaten among the dignitaries? >> yes. the first example i would say is the state dinner that was cooked for nelson mandela. that was actually created by an african american chef named patrick clark who was offered the white house executive jeff job under president clinton. patrick clark was a well-known african american chef in new york. tavern on the green. audio on. but he turned it down because it was too much of a pay cut. yes. he was making six figures well into the six figures, as a cook at the adams hotel across the street from the white house. but at that time the white house executive chef's salary was 58,000. so it is a definite drop off from the private sector. he had several k

include proposals for tax reform, i believe that the white house is going to look to essentially tie in the infrastructure plan together with fiscal 2022 funding, in ingrained division for spending for the next year and years to come. host: let's go over to the audience. but first, let's talk about the topline numbers. the $1.5 trillion proposal includes over $69 billion for non-defense programs, $753 billion for defense programs, an increase domestically, and a 1.7% increase for the military. what has been some of the reaction to that figure on the military spending, 1.7%? guest: the military funding proposal is probably the most controversial here. initially, we saw praise from the top spending leaders on capitol hill, like the house appropriations chairwoman, folks like that, john yarmuth, both of them said this is a great starting point, we can work with this. but the president has to sort of walk a very difficult line on defense spending and it remains to be seen how he will do it. it's one of the most fascinating narratives to me for the next year, because you have progressives

the senate, in the white house. the base the same problem especially when it gets in the political realm because i have to be able to overcome the filibuster. they have to get 60 votes. they do have control of the senate but guess what, you have to have 51 votes they are just to pass the bill. not everybody sees things together. they are down for the moment to two votes in the house of representatives so the turning rate -- is pretty tight. but you might see republicans at some point say can we work together on some of this may be seeing the outcome of those verdicts? we haven't heard a lot from republicans this afternoon responding to this verdict and the very first person who did respond on camera was tommy, the republican senator from alabama. this shows the criminal justice system works. he said they had a jury and they felt the jury was good. and if that is what they thought, that is the verdict. the political pressure on democrats is if they are not able to move that, now, sure, they can weaponize this and boo

and the people that they have hired to work in the white house. it's hard to imagine the biden/harris administration being more successful at governing in their first 100 days. the biden/harris administration pushed the biggest first piece of legislation by any with the in history through the congress and won, and they did that in the most politically polarized congress of our lifetimes. and they did that while fighting a once-in-a-century pandemic that presented the biggest peacetime logistical challenge in american history, how to deliver a life-saving vaccine to 330 million people. >> our progress these past 100 days against one of the worst pandemics in history has been one of the greatest logistical achievements, logistical achievements this country has ever seen. >> 85%. that speech last night by president biden got the approval of 85% of the people watching that speech. joe biden used his first address to congress as president to give the country a dose of hope. >> a mass vaccination center in glendale, arizona. i asked the nurse, i said wh

(it's a skirt... and shorts) the world is going hybrid. so, why not your cloud? a hybrid cloud with ibm helps bring all your clouds together. that means you can access all your data, modernize without rebuilding, and help keep things both open and secure. that's why businesses from retail to banking are going hybrid with the technology and expertise

house, as you just indicated, and whether or not that's something the white house plans to do, and they suggested it's not something they plan to do, and they have had meetings on the capitol hill with civil rights leaders and members of congress, and they believe it should play out in congress. >> you learn a lot when you have a long time in the congress, and many were skeptical of his record especially in the 1990s in the senate on justice reform. i want to read a little bit of your piece. it was a major issue in the 2020 presidential election with biden rebutting calls from liberal activist to defund their departments. biden as a candidate sought to strike a balance between competing demands for police over side and those that support the police. he has shifted some to the left, but the question is how far? >> well, the white house has not said yet what his position is on some of these things like qualified immunity, which emerged as a sticking point, and it was last year and it re-emerged as a staking point in the debate now. he said as a candidate he wanted to see a ban on choke ho

trump white house was. this white house is not personality driven as much as the trump white house was because they are partly more disciplined but because of the crisis of the moment. there is not a lot of disagreements about what they should have done first. it is clear they have to do the american rescue plan first. so the size of the crisis has helped them be more on the same page. that there is not factions to pry and that is where the leaks come from when there are two sides that want different things and they try to press that in the media to win. the challenge for us, now is penetrating a deeper administration and they are so focused on not getting off their plan, not being distracted by news of the day, even if it is another crisis, or a mass shooting, they delivering on a plan and they don't want to be pushed off of it. so it is not going to -- >> including by the media. >> exactly. it is not going to be a tweet that takes us into another direction. we know what direction they're going in. so that
